NYC: THE METROPOLITAN ROOM WELCOMES BACK SYLVIA MIMS
Sylvia Mims returns to THE METROPOLITAN ROOM(34 West 22nd Street, NYC - 212-206-0440) on Wednesday, August 5th at 7:00 pm with an eclectic jazz set including a medley of Michel Legrand compositions, Stevie Wonder, an ode to the music of Brazil, and a few surprises. Sylvia is a legit vocalist with classical training and a jazz sensibility, capable of weaving intricate stories with an exquisitely colorful voice. Her rare gift of singing moving renditions is simply captivating. Sylvia Mims is a rare talent, seamlessly blending a deeply rooted jazz sensibility with classical training. Sylvia's timbre is like a signature: unique and making each song personal and each story genuinely lived; her extraordinary vocal range is matched by that of her favorite genres: the Great American Song Book, early and contemporary Jazz, Bossa Nova, Broadway, R&B, and Blues. Sylvia recently released her debut CD "Where Lovers Live". Originally from Los Angeles, Sylvia was extremely active in southern California, being the featured vocalist of the Swing Jazz City Orchestra, and performing at prominent Jazz hot spots. Notable accompanying musicians include Tamir Hendelman, Karen Hammack, Billy Higgins, Roy McCurdy, Putter Smith, Earl Palmer, Bobby Rodriguez, Kendall Kay, Jamie Findlay, Dave Koonse, and Gene Bertoncini. In the Tri-State area, she has performed at Carnegie Hall, as a winner in the Golden Voices of America competition, and numerous venues in CT and NY. Sylvia's warm, breathtaking vocals are a conduit to a uniquely appealing and engaging live experience. She is equally compelling singing jazz legend Horace Silver's Nica's Dream as she is performing Your Daddy's Son from the musical Ragtime. There is a $22.50 cover plus a 2-drink minimum.
